My name is Stephanie Vinieratos, the Founder & Event Planner behind VINI Events!
A little about me...
I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago as one of three daughters in a Greek household- where no celebration was spared! My love of hosting comes from my mother, who uses any excuse to cook and gather people together.
I received my Bachelor's degree in Accounting at Loyola, and continued my professional career in Public Accounting until 2021, which came to an end when my creative side was dying to come out! I always had a love of flowers, stationary, styling.. so what better way to combine everything and launch an Event Planning business during a pandemic, right? Someone once told me "Wow, so you ran straight into the fire, huh?" - YES. That's exactly what I did.
I love being a part of your milestones and creating memories that last forever. This community has been such a joy to be a part of, from each and every one of my clients to all the amazing vendors so, thank you all!

On the day of, she understood our culture and customs and was there for me, my husband, our parents, and the bridal party. She was on top of every item and request. I would ask her for help with something but she already had it done. Always 1 step ahead.
While planning, she offered her advice and recommendations with vendors, put together our schedules and item lists, attended meetings, and offered moral support with all of the stress and excitement building up to our special day.
If I could give her a 10000000/10, it still wouldn't be sufficient. Outstanding service, outstanding communication, outstanding everything. You will not be disappointed.
